Best time to ride is 00:01:18.019 --> 00:01:22.060 at 7 a .m. with a 4 -foot incoming high tide 00:01:22.060 --> 00:01:26.079 when the southwest swell is 2 feet at 18 seconds, 00:01:26.500 --> 00:01:30.480 and the offshore wind is 3 mile per hour. The 00:01:30.480 --> 00:01:33.620 first high tide on Monday will be 5 feet just 00:01:33.620 --> 00:01:37.040 before 8 a .m., followed by a minus -half foot 00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:42.040 low tide at 2 .45.

Dominican shortstop Geraldo 00:04:48.980 --> 00:04:52.240 Perdomo threw his hands up in the air in disgust, 00:04:52.579 --> 00:04:55.399 while United States closer Mason Miller lifted 00:04:55.399 --> 00:04:59.360 his in celebration. Miller's full count slider 00:04:59.360 --> 00:05:02.040 sailed below the strike zone, but was called 00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:06.040 a strike, giving Team USA a 2 -1 victory in a 00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:09.839 tense World Baseball Classic semifinal. Trailing 00:05:09.839 --> 00:05:13.459 by one, Julio Rodriguez worked a walk, but Perdomo 00:05:13.459 --> 00:05:16.720 was ruled out. sending Team USA to the finals 00:05:16.720 --> 00:05:20.740 against either Italy or Venezuela. The game featured 00:05:20.740 --> 00:05:25.680 25 players ranked within ESPN's Top 100, showcasing 00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:29.079 extraordinary talent and thrilling moments throughout. 00:05:30.120 --> 00:05:34.480 In local sports, the Aztecs were notably snout 00:05:34.480 --> 00:05:38.160 from the men's NCAA tournament field, leaving 00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:41.910 fans frustrated after a solid season. Despite 00:05:41.910 --> 00:05:44.889 beating Colorado State in New Mexico in the Mountain 00:05:44.889 --> 00:05:47.389 West Tournament, the committee only selected 00:05:47.389 --> 00:05:50.449 Utah State from the league, denying the Aztecs 00:05:50.449 --> 00:05:54.370 a chance to dance this year. With six top 75 00:05:54.370 --> 00:05:56.930 teams in the Mountain West, it's hard to believe 00:05:56.930 --> 00:06:01.329 only one will compete in March Madness. The Aztecs 00:06:01.329 --> 00:06:03.790 faced challenges in their non -conference schedule 00:06:03.790 --> 00:06:06.949 and a tough loss to Troy ultimately haunted their 00:06:06.949 --> 00:06:10.399 tournament hopes. Fans are left wondering what 00:06:10.399 --> 00:06:13.399 more the Aztecs could have done to earn a spot. 00:06:15.639 --> 00:06:19.959 In top news, experts say this activity rebuilds 00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:24.139 mitochondria and may slow aging. The mitochondria, 00:06:24.259 --> 00:06:27.300 known as the powerhouses of cells, are emerging 00:06:27.300 --> 00:06:31.220 as a possible factor in the pains of aging. Some 00:06:31.220 --> 00:06:33.879 scientists believe that poor mitochondrial health 00:06:33.879 --> 00:06:37.000 can lead to diseases related to aging. such as 00:06:37.000 --> 00:06:40.899 Alzheimer's and cancer. Pinchas Cohen, Dean of 00:06:40.899 --> 00:06:44.480 USC's Leonard Davis School of Gerontology, stated 00:06:44.480 --> 00:06:47.259 the mitochondria just give up earlier than other 00:06:47.259 --> 00:06:49.720 parts of the cell because of the wear and tear 00:06:49.720 --> 00:06:53.300 that they are subjected to. Daria Mochli -Rosen, 00:06:53.620 --> 00:06:56.459 a professor at Stanford University, noted that 00:06:56.459 --> 00:06:59.459 exercise helps heal mitochondria by prompting 00:06:59.459 --> 00:07:03.519 the body to replenish them. In business news, 00:07:04.390 --> 00:07:07.930 Yamaha is leaving California after nearly 50 00:07:07.930 --> 00:07:11.089 years, relocating its United States headquarters 00:07:11.089 --> 00:07:16.209 to Kedasaw, Georgia by the end of 2028. The company 00:07:16.209 --> 00:07:19.410 cites tax pressures and the need to improve profitability 00:07:19.410 --> 00:07:23.449 as key factors in this decision. Yamaha joins 00:07:23.449 --> 00:07:26.810 major corporations like Tesla and Chevron in 00:07:26.810 --> 00:07:29.629 fleeing California due to costly regulations. 00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:33.560 The company plans to sell its 25 -acre Cypress 00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:36.779 property and utilize a sale -and -leaseback arrangement 00:07:36.779 --> 00:07:40.339 for a smooth transition. Yamaha has been based 00:07:40.339 --> 00:07:44.579 in Cypress since 1979, and its Marine and Motorsports 00:07:44.579 --> 00:07:49.759 facilities moved to Catasau in 1999 and 2019 00:07:49.759 --> 00:07:54.680 respectively.
